Hi.

I'm almost finished the build of the Dingo (you know it must be easy if I can do it in just a few weeks...). But there are a few things that are odd.

1) The fit of the the angled plates and vertical plates building up the body is a bit dodgy. Any tips here? I've ended up with the vertical front of the crew compartment that doesn't fit flush with the vehicle sides. I think I may have built those a bit wide somehow. I think some plastic shims will help...

2) Any tips on making the commander's seat look better than that in the kit?

And there were some great links posted before. I also did a straight Google image search and came up with lots of goodies. Not enough wartime photos though...
